Experience

Developed a software solution to help digitize a financial institution and integrated it with the National Social Security Institute and the State Agency for Electronic Government. The solution is able to scan and validate citizens’ ID cards, store all kinds of electronic documents and process payment orders.
Platform-agnostic Enterprise Service Bus
https://www.leadconsult.eu/products/Led a team responsible for the analysis, design, implementation, and support of an enterprise service bus targeted but not limited to the energy trading industry. Part of my responsibilities was to design and document a complete technical architecture of the product as well as develop the most sensitive parts of the software, such as authentication and authorization.

Commodity Trading and Risk Management Platform Extension
Designed and developed an extension to an existing CTRM platform for a major Norwegian energy company. The extension calculates energy forecasts based on historical data and presents them in real-time reports.
Middle Office Implementation for a Bank
Designed and implemented the entire middle office solution for a major Bulgarian bank. The solution had to compile payment orders from a horde of different systems and then process them. Bank employees were able to monitor the payment orders in real-time through a website and take manual control of the process.
Modernization of a Banking Call Center Platform
Acted as lead developer responsible for the modernization of the call center platform of a major Bulgarian bank. I identified problematic areas in the existing solution as well as proposed and implemented new technologies and solutions. I wrote a complete regression test suite to ensure that the new implementation would not change the current business workflow or introduce new bugs or issues. I also had to establish key metrics to monitor the impact of the new implementation.
